From CI lurches for Prohibition

In Actuul Work It Is Charged.
The Model License League of Amer.
lea hug Just sent out a circular let'
ter which calls attention to the work'
higs of the Antl-Saloun League of
America, and that the public may
know the sentiment on both sides of
the prohibition movement this circular
Is published. It Is as follows:
We desire to call your attention to
the published fact that a former so.
licltpr of the Anti-Saloon league of
America has offered to give the Anti-
Saloon league 11000 for permission
to have the books of the Aotl-Saloon
league examined, and thut his former
solicitor bus also offered to pay all
of the expenses Incident to the ex
amination of the accounts of the Anti
Saloon league. So far the Anti-Salon
league of America has Ignored the .offer.
Regardless of your Btand on the
liquor problem, we think that you
hould advocate a policy of public
ity on the part of the Antl-Baloon
league of America. The foremost
political parties of the United States
are favorable to publicity In connec
tion with campaign funds. If the po
litical parties are willing to make pub
lic the names of those who support
them, with the amounts subscribed,
and also to account for the expendi
tures In connection with the political
campaigns, It would seem that an or
ganization such as the Anti-Saloon
league, which levies so largely on the
people In a semi-religious and scml
politlcal movement, should be anxious
to render an accounting.
If the Anti-Saloon league Is a high
ly moral organization, it should have
no subscribers that It Is ashamed
of, and It should have no expendi
tures that are not Justifiable on the
highest moral grounds.
The charge has been made that the
Anti-Saloon league is headed by a
coterie of men who are waxing rich
at the expense of those who are con
tributing -funds for the express pur
pose of relieving the community of
the evils Incident to the existence of
the Improperly regulated saloon.
The National Model License league
has been Informed that four state or
ganizations, namely, those of Kansas,
Qklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri,
have broken away from the Anti-Saloon
league because these state or
ganizations have believed that they
wore not being treated fairly finan
cially by the Anti-Saloon league of
America and that other state organi
zations are expected to follow suit
in the near future. ,
It has been charged in the press
that the Anti-Saloon leaguo of Amer
ica goes into a Btc, forms a state
organization and permits the collect
ing of funds from the churches and
Individuals by the local officials, In
consideration of a commission of 2'A
per cent of all money collected.
It Is also alleged that the Anti-Sa
loon league furnishes speakers in
state campaigns at the rate of ISO
per day, the money being paid, not
by the Anti-Saloon league of Amer
ica, but by the state organization la
the state In which the campaign Is
being waged.
Further, it Is said that the Anti-
Saloon league of America Insists upon
controlling each state organization
through the appointment of' state
superintendents chosen by and kept In
office by the national leaders.
Further, It Is alleged that the na
tional leaders Insist upon controlling
the state Anti-Saloon league publlca
tions and making these publications
subsldary to the national organ, n
poper said to be conducted by this
same coterie of leaders and for their
material benefit.
It Is also charged that the Anti-
Saloon league pays from 15 to 75 per
cent for the collecting of funds for
the benefit of the Anti-Saloon league
of America, and the National Model
License league has been Informed that
out of 11,000,000 collected from the
churches last year by the Antl-Sa-
oon league of America, $750,000 was
spent In commissions and salaries.
If It Is true that of $100 given to
the Anti-Saloon league only $25 Is de
voted to the purposes for Which the
money Is subscribed this ' fact, It
seems to us, would be of great Inter
est to those who are contributors.
The National Model License league
has been told repeatedly, and has
reason to believe, that several of the
eaders of the Anti-Salon league start- I
cd Into the organization as poor men
and that they are now rated as men
of great wealth. A showdown on the
part of the Anti-Saloon league, we
think, .wodld be of peculiar Interest to
the needy pastors who see their con
gregations give hundreds and thou
ands of dollars yearly to the Antl
Saloon league.

ti-rest Is being awakened in the hew
varieties of hybrid wheats propagated
by the experiment station of the
Washington State college and which
are being grown extensively for the
flrnt time this year. These wheats
are crossed betweon well-known va
rieties The crossing of different va
rletles was Inaugurated by Prof. W.
J. Splllmon, now head of the experi

rlcuiture In Wushington, D. C, many
years ogo.
The vast fields of wheat grown
In this section are said to be of the
hybrid varieties kn6wn as "No. 108"
and "No. 123."- C. A. Price, a local
grain buyer and farmer, said: "Not
a bushel of this wheat should be sent
out of the country. Every bushel
should bo used for seed by farmers of
Whitman county. It means several
bushels an aero more. If the Wash
ington State college had done nothing
more than produce these varieties of
wheat It would have paid several
times over its cost to the state." .

Dry Hay In Dam Burned so Quickly,
Drunken Wanderer May Have Been
Caught.
Endlcott. Wash., Aug. 11. While
looking through the ashes of the J. C.
Reinke barn, which burned a few
days ago, Marshal Cole found a bone
which, when taken to Dr. Henry, was
pronounced to be the bone of the
wrist of a human. It Is thought that
the fire was started by a tramp, prob
ably drunk, and that he was burned
with the barn. The fire when first
seen appeared to have started from
the Inside. The ashes Are still too
hot for a thorough Investigation. The
dry hay In the barn made such a hot
fire that If a person was In the barn
he would have been completely cre
mated. -
Adam Benner, who works for the
Interior Warehouse found a fire in a'
car this morning when he went to
work. The fire had not gotten a
start and was put out by men at the
warehouse. It was probably started
by a tramp sleeping In the'ear.

Secretary E. W. Stone of the fron
tier committee, has received word thnt
a party of Hawaiian.) sailed today for
Pan Francisco on the steamer Alame
da to take part In the frontier days
celebration In this city, says the Chey.
enne Tribune.
The party includes Joseph Klni. the
champion rider of the Islands, and n
number of other ropers and riders,
all of whom are native Hawaiian.
They will be accompanied by Eben
I'. Low, a prominent stockman of the
i.sftinds, who saw the show last year
ai d who was so Impressed with It thnt
he promised that this year the Ha
waiian cowboys would take an active
part themselves In the contests.

40,000 Bushels Sold.
Tho general quotations on grain
throughout the country were, some
what weaker yesterday than those of
Thursday, but in the Lewiston mar
ket no change was made, says the
Lewiston Tribune.
Tho quotations remained at 76
cents for bluestem and 73 cents for
club. Asotin takes the distinction of
having made the largest number of
early sales on the new crop. ' About
4 0,000 bushels of Turkey Red was
sold there yesterday at 75 cents. This
wheat grades bluestem. As bluestem
brought 76 cents In Lewiston, It Is
seen the mnrket In Asotin, is but 1
cent below that here. The fact that
buyers are purchasing at these prices
In Asotin is taken as an Indication
that thot upper river Is not long to
remain without a boat service. In
fact suggestion was made yesterday
that by October the O. R. & N. boats
would again be In service. All the
grain marketed at the upper river
warehouses depends upon the boats
as a means for getting the wheat
out to market.
Estimate was made yesterday that
not more than 8000 bushels of the
new crop reaching the Lewiston
warehouses has yet been sold, and
practically no sales are reported from
the warehouses along the Lewiston
Culdesao line.
